I am becoming grossly unnerved by this privilege plus power bullshit that excuses racist or sexist dialogue so long as it's used against whites or males. Edit: I guess that's all I'll say because it's OT.
Jawed dropped..... Humans are humans are fucking humans....humans need to get the fuck over it... ALL of us....the world is too small now. The longer we continue trying to segregate the more we start regressing instead of progressing. Done with this thread....
[OT]Technically, there are three species interbred. The pure race are sub Saharan Africans, homosapien sapien. Europeans have ~5-10% neanderthal dna. East Asians have less neanderthal dna but they also have Denisovan Dna. The people of the Himalayans and nearby mountainous regions have the highest concentrations of Denisovan Dna. This is thought to have contribute to their better lung capacity. And it's believed that only a few thousand years ago, like 1000 BC, there was 4th species Florensis[/OT]
People that believe or make that argument that are either stupid, or believe their audience is stupid. Under their logic, if I were to go to Africa I'd suddenly become incapable of being a racist just because I'm a minority there.
It happens to us all the time so get used to it. There are times when we see racism right after one of us is KILLED but people will say that George Zimmerman didn't chase after and kill that young man because he was black. They will argue that race had nothing to do with it. Those same people will decry racism when Shaquille o Neal says Doughboy. I just think that's bullshit.
Let me be the "privileged Black" for a sec: "There's nothing to suggest that this wasn't a simple mistake. Shaq probably doesn't even know who Withey is. Lots of people mispronounce names. My name is Damany. It happens all the time." See what I did there?
He's mispronouncing his name "accidently" as he is getting posterized. Shouldn't he have been saying Xavier Henry's name? His whole goal was to be funny because Withey is white and his name is similar to whitey. I don't even have a problem with it, but it shows Shaq's character and I think character is why people call bs with the doughboys name.
My statement above holds true. That's the type of shit that gets said to us when we are killed by police.
Shaquille always tries to be funny problem is really not funny. But TNT should firing him for lack knowledge of the players and the team. This guy have no clue when he suggest something a team to should do.
Yeah I literally could care less what Shaq thinks about our team. Some of his comments are borderline insulting and the fact the he is getting paid to do this and doesnt even bother to know the players name just pisses me off. It never ceases to amaze me what some people get paid to "do" and how much they make "doing" it
BTW, the George Takei, "Ohhhhh My" they play at the Moda during games everytime Meyers scores is annoying. They really need to get rid of that. Once or twice a game maybe, but every fucking time, "Ohhhhh My" because it kinda sorta sounds like Oh Meyers is dumb.
